Kaz speaks Kutargisms regarding PS3

It's not Kaz speaking up and defending the box that surprises me; it's that the statements are just so obviously wrong that I can't believe he actually thinks people will take him seriously. You can go over to IGN to read all the text, but I'll highlight a couple of fun quotes. Won't even comment on them beyond simply posting as you can fill in your own commentary at this point.

"I have heard many people say our competitors' systems are just as powerful as the PS3. That simply is not true," said Hirai. "No other next generation entertainment system pushes the envelope on advanced technology like PS3.

<snip>

Hirai said that PS3 titles like Resistance: Fall of Man already utilize some 16GBs of storage space on Blu-ray Disc. "That game simply wouldn't be possible on any other system without using multiple discs."

<snip>

He also seemed to suggest that had Sony gone the Nintendo route and released a marginally more powerful console, the launch would have gone much smoother. "A worldwide launch for any console is quite ambitious. In fact, it has never been done before.

    Mogoul,

    Attacking the messenger is a great way of avoiding an rhetorical argument. If you have someting to say that adds to the discussion then go for it.

    I’m glad that MS worked out your RROD problem well. From what I’ve seen on Majornelson.com and consumer webistes that is typical and in the majority. It still strikes me as off that there were so many failures to begin with.

    I managed to post a bunch because I was sick. Picked up my PS3 after I got back to work. Resistance is a good game. The graphics are sub par compared to what I see on the PC but the game play was fun.

    Posts like this are a waste of space and attacked by me as such.

    There were 3 points shown by ozy. 1 was pretty much  bunk. The other 2 weren’t.

    There were kinda thrown out there to be assumed as fact because they weren’t argued against. They are not and can be debated for well.

    Ozy seems to have MUCH thicker skin than you. I’m glad this is his blog and not yours.
